I don't have a pic on my computer but I got 20 all the way around and everyone seems to think it looks pretty slick. Sometimes at night it isn't the easiest to see out the windows when backing up and looking it the mirrors, but thats my only complaint, but you can fix that by just rolling the window down.

I have no idea what my truck has, but it's pretty dark. It came like that when I bought it, but if I had to guess I'd say it's at least 20 on top of the factory tint. Maybe even 15. I had my windshield tinted with an 85 and I must say it is awesome. Cuts down on the greenhouse effect tremendously and reduces glare from headlights at night.

I have 50 on the front and 5 on the back two doors and rear window. We get ticketed for anything darker than 30% tint on the front(rears dont matter) so I went with the next darkest from factory tint which is 50(factory is 30). I think it looks great.

I just got max legal in the front and picked the tint that matched the stock stuff the closest. It was the more expensive stuff, but I just wanted a good match. Here's what mine looks like:
It's 35% 3M ScotchTint Color-stable. You have to be looking for it to tell it's different. Color is almost exact, and the back is a tad darker, but not that much. No problems seeing out at night, either.
